Radisson, Holland and Princess
 
Which cruise line has good nightlife for a twenty something couple along with gambling?

Thank you all!

Out of your list - Princess.

If nightlife is your main priority, I'd rank them in the following order:
1. Princess
2. Radisson
3. HAL

What is your idea of nightlife? For an active nightlife with several varieties of music, dancing and shows I think your only choice would be Princess. The other two will be extremely quiet in comparison.

My idea of nightlife includes dancing, entertainment and the like. I'm in my mid twenties and my boyfriend and I are looking to have a great time. We love to gamble so we'd like an option so we don't SPEND too much. lol

Stick with Princess for all of the above posted reasons.

PRINCESS! YOu just may want to consider Celebrity as they would compare very well. Choose an itinerary and date that pleases you and go to a site such as icruise.com and then when you get the sailing that is of best value, book with your travel agent for the same price. I recommend using the internet as a tool, but booking through a travel agent for representation and service.

It depends on your itinerary. We have cruises Princess to Alaska, New England, and the Mexican Riviera. I (34) was the youngest on the ship for our first two cruises. There was only a handful of 20-30 somethings on our Riviera cruise. All of our cruises with Princess were not during peak sail times.

I would suggest Royal Caribbean for a more lively crowd your age. Also, all of the entertainment on my Princess sailings were geared toward an older crowd (50's sock hops). If that does not bother you Princess is great.

Forget HAL and Radission for nightlife. Princess is pretty good but IME RCI is the best for nightlife!
